Ideally, it would look like the other galleries with one critical exception. In the area below the still there would be a clickable link to the animation itself. If you look at the other galleries there's an area for the write-up/credits, etc. The link would be in there. When a viewer clicks the link, the animation would pop up or in a seperate window. After watching the animation, viewers could close the new window and post comments or ratings under the still in the original window. Essentially, it would be a combination of the Gallery and free stuff technologies. Animations coud be hosted elsewhere (like they are now) or perhaps Renderosity could provide server space for a low monthly fee. The main reason for wanting it in the Art Galleries is because that's where people go to look at things. The Art Galleries also have technology for feedback (comments/ratings) that would be nice to have available (for those of us with thick skin [grin]). Although I'm very greatful we've got a spot in the Free Stuff areas, that's not an intuitive location for potential viewers seeking animations.

Before they made me they broke the mold!
